Fort Sam Houston Military Reservation Cultural Resources Management Plan

Author(s): Steven P. Austin

Year: 1997

Summary

The CRMP presented here provides guidelines and procedures that will enable Fort Sam Houston to meet its legal responsibilities for the identification, evaluation, and treatment of historic properties under its jurisdiction.

The principal evaluation of cultural resources utilizes significance criteria as established by coordinating federal regulations for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Archeological and architectural resources that have been evaluated and identified as eligible for inclusion in or formally listed on the NRHP are considered to be historic properties. These historic properties may be archeological sites (both prehistoric and historic), buildings, structures, objects, and districts. Resources of unknown NRHP eligibility are those architectural and archeological resources for which the NRHP evaluation process has not yet been undertaken or has not yet been completed, but must be treated as potentially eligible until a final determination of eligibility is made. NRHP-ineligible resources are those architectural and archeological resources that do not qualify for inclusion in the NRHP.

The present document follows the requirements for the preparation of a Cultural Resources Management Plan (CRMP) or a Historic Preservation Plan (HPP) as defined in Army Regulation 420-40. The text is designed to be of use to multiple audiences who are concerned with the management or preservation of the historic properties contained within the limits of Fort Sam Houston Military Reservation, Bexar County, Texas. These audiences include: U.S. Army Medical Command (MEDCOM); Fort Sam Houston installation staff; state and federal cultural resources managers; professional historic preservationists and archeologists; and the general public.

The additional images uploaded to this resource include drawings of Fort Sam Houston's boundaries with architectural resources and potential archaeological resource areas.
